Agreed. Prime Royce Gracie prolly the toughest. UFC didn't have weight classes back then and not much rules. And he kept winning against opponents way bigger than him.Quote:

It can be a catch 22.You can alienate people if you come off like a arrogant prick,but a true refined confidence can be a great defense.
I didn't mean to insult Royce....just the douches from The Ultimate Fighter.Quote:

I'm talking about one particular guy in UFC though, which is Royce Gracie. He is not a poser, and they didn't really sugarcoat his name unlike most of today's MMA fighters.Quote:

Make eye contact with everyone.
Greet everyone you pass but without a smile.
Always keep one hand in your coat pocket.
If someone says something funny, don't laugh or smile just say, "that's funny."
NEVER EVER ask for a receipt or stop to pick up change off the floor!
A Latin accent
A scar
A nickname
2 guys beside you
Mick does that include one of those tear tattoos?
Booze you know the meaning behind that tat? :(Quote:

Here all bopxers get virtually the same cut....
Zero back and sides and spiked on the top...
Virtually every guywho's into fighting legit or street has that cut over here.
True, working the doors in London,. This guy comes up to the head doorman one tuff looking bastard, there was something about the guy wiry good posture 6ft 2ins about 180lbs who asked to see the manager. They had given him the wrong change and he was very polite about it. The doorman said this is the manager, and with that hit him with his best right hand. The guy never moved and the doorman shit himself, the guy said theres no need to get violent. With that me standing 10ft away said come with me mate and took him to see the manager. Talking to him he was Polish on Holiday and was Polish Lightheavy Champion the whole thing made me smile at the time ;D
Scrap you din't grab his name by any chance? It's just I've trained wityh a former Polish Light Heavy, it would be uncanny if it were the same fellow.Quote:
